Heh... that's gonna go over like gangbusters with the crew. Man, Sarine is just one surprise after another, not that it isn't called for under the circumstances. Desperate times require desperate measures.
Dax's symbiotic mental state appears to be deteriorating, and that doesn't bode well for an officer who is already very much on the bubble with Starfleet Command.

Your throwing everything but the kitchen sink at them it seems. Klingons, spies, the Borg, what else is going to happen?
Enough of that. This is a very intriguing story and want to see more.
Author's Response: Hi Kraylose!
Great to see the comment of a new reader. Thanks very much - I'll say this much: the arrival of the Borg is not at all what everyone is expecting!
Thanks again.

There was so much to that! Zoraya is in way deeper than she knows with this stuff, The Darkness thing reminded me of the Shadow ships in the description, the Ferengi turned out to be a woman(!), Dax did something weird to fix the ship and the Borg are coming! *takes breath* Whoosh! Killer, Cap'n!
Author's Response: Hey!
Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, a lot happening here, though not much of it is what it seems... :)

As if things weren't bad enough already, now they've got Borg on their doorstep?! That's presuming, of course, that they're still the same level threat the were two centuries earlier.
Ba'el still has it out for Kalara, which given his history as a do-or-die-at-my-hand resistance fighter makes perfect sense. Dax has made some enemies in Command, but not enough to strip him of his commission or his posting to the Redemption.
You've infused the denizens of Onyx Station with a very exotic, non-humanoid flavor. I look forward to learning more about them, their religion, and whatever the hell ate that star system and put their collective underwear in a twist.
And Zoraya's finally onboard, though it looks like she's got competition in the surveillance department. Ba'el's speech was harsh and uncompromising, just like him, and he's made it clear that woe be unto anyone who crosses him.
Lots of terrific stuff here. I especially like all the gritty little details in the aftermath of the Klingon attack, from the patchwork job on the hull of Redemption to the spotty comms connections.
Can't wait for more!
